    It’s been a slow pounce day today. I hit the Pounce Again button many times before I stumbled upon this little star. I have a thing for stars so they will always catch my eye. This pretty little one is the work of d’Pholk Designs etsy store. Besides the stars there are many other cool…

    I seem to have an eye for the whimsical at the moment. It’s quite unusual for the first listing in a pounce to catch my eye, but here it is. This cute little glass pendant is from Designs by Linda Nee etsy store. With Christmas just around the corner, or so advertisers would have us…

    So here’s my find from today’s etsy pounce. This little weirdo, named shaina, is courtesy of susarto etsy store. There are many others and I recommend you go and read about them, they have quite the personalities to go with their unique looks. With my dear friend Reneta having a baby about now (labour started…

    Due to my night away in Sydney (it’s alright for some) and celebrating 10 years of Squiz.net, I wasn’t able to do my Sunday pounce. So here it is a little belated. This was truly eye catching, and recently sold. These gorgeous bags are by the RaspberryFairy (aka Alice) and are available from her etsy…

    So here is my new weekly challenge. I have made no secret of the fact that I love etsy. I also really love their Pounce feature… it really satisfies my love of random (right up there with the iPod shuffle and iTunes new Genius – but more on that later). So each week I’m going…

    It will come as no surprise to you that I love Etsy. It’s the one site that I can waste so much time and, if I had it, I would probably spend a lot of money there also. I am always looking out for quilt inspiration even though I manage about to create one quilt…

    I have been having a lovely time browsing Etsy lately and in the process have bought myself a couple of housewarming presents. This one completes my Utensils collection. My eldest chose this one, I couldn’t decide between the spatulas and the egg beaters so he chose the egg beaters. It was such a good choice…

    Look what arrived in the mail today! A birthday present from my dear friend Lane in Atlanta. A gorgeous print from one of my absolute favourite Esty sellers – Studio M. I think this one belongs in the kitchen – what do you think? Now I’ll just have to increase my collection with the ‘I…

    I’m not sure why it is that so much great design comes out of Scandinavia. I really love these wooden birds, available from Great Dane Furniture. They really have so many beautiful things that I will just have to add to my wish list. My husband and I joke that we keep Scandinavia is business,…

    I have just discovered Etsy. So much talent and so many beautiful pieces, I have literally spent hours browsing. This print by Studio M is on it’s way to me from Minnesota! It’s called The Little Family and besides the colours, which I love, it just reminded my of my little family. I can’t wait…
